The obtained results from the first round of interviews highlighted the citizens point of view linked to GIs and their interest in the co-management. Research findings will constitute a decision support for administration and stakeholder to guide public investments and achieve awareness among citizens in order to promote co-governance actions and develop climate adaptation strategies and improve the quality of life in urban areas

Abstract
Among the Sustainable Development Goals in the UN Agenda 2030, Goals 11 “Sustainable Cities and Communities” aims to “make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”. Among the different targets it aims to promote a participatory and integrated transport-land planning; to guarantee accessibility to green areas and safe and inclusive public spaces, especially to vulnerable users; to ensure access to safe and economic living spaces and transport systems. This work presents an integrated approach to consider the role of Green Infrastructures (GIs) and Transport Mobility (TM) as key components in the transition towards a model of sustainable and resilient cities. The analysis of these two components of the urban system, especially in cities with high rates of motorisation and traffic congestion, on the one hand, and with a non-widespread presence of green areas, on the other, becomes strategic for implementing actions aimed at making cities more sustainable. The analyzed case study focuses on Catania (Italy) at different territorial levels, considering both the urban area and the neighboring municipalities. The study consists of two steps: (i) first, an interview-based methodology has been implemented to analyze citizen’s perception of GIs to tackle climate change and the willingness to pay to sustain the maintenance of these infrastructures; (ii) on the other hand, an extended survey will be performed to evaluate the propensity of users towards innovative shared transport systems and also the willingness to pay for the service. The obtained results from the first round of interviews highlighted the citizens point of view linked to GIs and their interest in the co-management. Research findings will constitute a decision support for administration and stakeholder to guide public investments and achieve awareness among citizens in order to promote co-governance actions and develop climate adaptation strategies and improve the quality of life in urban areasFile | Dimensione | Formato | |
